Comment le PASDeR 3 transforme les organisations socio-professionnelles au Bénin

05/21/2026

Qu’est-ce qui permet aux organisations paysannes de passer du statut de bénéficiaires passifs à celui d’acteurs moteurs de leur propre développement agricole ? Au Bénin, le PASDeR 3 a consacré cinq ans à répondre à cette question. Sur cette période, le programme a soutenu près de 49 000 exploitations familiales paysannes, généré l’équivalent de 43,2 millions USD de revenus supplémentaires et créé plus de 70 600 emplois équivalents temps plein — tout en faisant évoluer les organisations socio-professionnelles de bénéficiaires à prestataires de BDS. La dernière étude de cas de la série Apprentissage vers l’Action de l’AMEA documente ce qui a fonctionné, ce qui doit encore progresser, et ce que cela signifie pour la mise à l’échelle des approches BDS en Afrique de l’Ouest.
